contamination has an immediate and fatal impact on wildlife. A vast amount of seabirds and ocean turtles, seals and other marine animals are killed every year subsequent to ingesting plastic or getting snared in it. Plastics are detrimental to aquatic ecosystems for a number of different reasons: they may entangle animals, be ingested by aquatic organisms and cause their death. Plastic causes pollution in the ocean and endangers the inhabitants of many sea creatures. Plastic comes in many different kinds

Sharks of the World Sharks are seen in many eyes as the king of the ocean. There are many different types of sharks, and some can even pose a threat to human lives. There are many movies about sharks, and while most of them are exaggerated, sharks are still undoubtedly one of the most vicious creatures in the world. Sharks are a large species with many different characteristics and diversities. While there are some well-known sharks, such as great whites or hammerheads, most people don’t know there

Narwhal The ocean was still and smooth, like a black mirror reflecting ivory clouds and cyan shadows. In it, a pale blue whale of immense size surfaced and swam gently, like a dropping tear on a cheek. All the misery from around the world was drawn to the sea and formed its ripples. The whale swallowed the grief silently, from the northeast to the southwest, and the world was quiet and peaceful. Over time, the whale could no longer bear and hold the sorrows inside his body. The pain transformed

Abstract The flood hazard in New York City is determined by both storm surges and rising sea levels. I joined model ‘Elevation Points’ with probabilistic sea-level rise projected areas to assess future coastal submersion of New York City. New York is very susceptible to the impacts of sea-level rise, including storm surge and coastal flooding. Many scientist deem man-made creations the cause of changes to the world’s climate and are promoting dramatic swings in the weather, such as, more floods,

remember my city being very close to having snow, these days not a single sign of it is shown. The effects of this are absolutely devastating. Humans are the ones solely responsible for such harsh effects toward our planet. Ever since the industrial revolution we have seen the number for CO2 gasses peak. In Fact according to NASA the level in amount of CO2 gasses is at the highest that it's ever been in centuries. Because of this rise, we are now seeing the effects it is having in our ocean. Warming

The oceans need to be protected because it is where life began and if not taken care of, life as we know it will end. When dangerous substances go into the ocean, ecosystems are suffer and become endangered along with lives of people and of marine life. Surfrider Foundation recognizes the importance of protecting and preserving the quality and biodiversity of the world's coasts because they are truly irreplaceable. There is also historical evidence of ocean pollution being present in the past, but

created for the new generation in 50 years time. Pollution comes from countless sources, including aerosols, coal or wastewater. For example, China has the worst air pollution in the world, as seen in the picture below. In 2016, only 84 out of 338 cities met the national standard for air quality. Every year, this abundance of air pollution alone kills hundreds and thousands of chinese citizens. China is just one example of one kind

relationship with ocean waters, their quality directly effects the quality of your life. The oceans contain about ninety-seven percent of the Earths water and cover two-thirds of the planet. They provide a source of food, recreation, bioengineering possibilities, and even the water we drink. The oceans absorb about thirty percent of the carbon dioxide we create and they produce around seventy percent of the oxygen we breath. Needless to say, life on Earth depends on the health of our oceans. One could

leaving Boston buried in snow. Winter is a natural occurrence, but due to global warming, the oceans are warmer and the air above them is moister creating more snow. Oceans act as batteries, charging up with extra warmth as carbons in the atmosphere continues to warm the planet. As energy generates it expels itself feeding bigger and more dangerous storms, and right now, over ninety percent the energy in the ocean is from climate change (Stockton). Therefore, as the

name but your human form’s name is Lance” said Father Light. ”Um...I guess that makes sense” said Trident (Lance). “Now let me show you our city said Father Light.” They walked for miles through deserts, grassy plains, and the jungles until finally they reached the city of Aborialis. “This is the city of Aborialis” said Father Light. It was an amazing city full of happy people and people who had been through wars and fights. “Now our journey to find all the other elements must begin soon” said
